Friday WOD "Pick Your Poison"

You choose the exercise that challenges you the most, or the one that you hate the most, or the one that you suck at the most.

Perform 1 rep the first minute, 2 reps the second minute, 3 reps the third minute etc., until you can no longer perform the required number of reps within that minute.

It is not as easy as it sounds. Thanks Denise.

Why is CrossFit so addicting?

This from CrossFitElPaso. Pretty much sums it all up.

We have seen masses all over the world get turned on to CrossFit and can't help but see the impact it has had on so many people's lives. Is it the all out efforts? Is it the fact that these movements are functional to real life? The time efficacy? Is it because we drop our ego's at the door? Because we like to try really, really hard? The camaraderie? We believe that it is a combination of all of the above centered around one thing: results. It has been found time after time that when a person is put through true CrossFit programming, then performance increases dramatically across several aspects of fitness. Whether you are a 20 year old college student, a 32 year old mother or a 55 year old business professional, the gains are real. An investment in your health will give you a bigger return than you will ever know.

Diana executing her 46th towel pullup. Needless to say, we were all impressed. She is an ice climber, so towel pullups will most definately help her climb higher and longer when she ventures off to Peru again.

Danielle - sick. She drives over 30 minutes to get to the training facility because the WOD is "Murph".
And she does 100 kipping pullups. What is wrong with her?
What dedication, what commitment, what a PSYCHO.








Adam in the midst of 10 thrusters, he beat his time in PopTart by almost 3 minutes and Rx'd it - 5 weeks!

This is Victoria. She is an inspiration.
At the least she is an artist, welder, telemark skier, mt. biker and CrossFitter. At the most she is BAD ASS.


She also just got her first blister after practicing kipping pullups. Go Vic!
